[OpenLayers-Users] POST not implemented

[Bart van den Eijnden]

Small correction Phil, GET does use the proxy if it's XHR and not on the same origin.

> GET doesnt use the proxy - doesnt need to. You need the proxy to deal with cross-origin security issues when using XHR. (ajax). if ProxyHost="/proxy..." this implies you have a /proxy context on the server. "../proxy" looks more likely - but /proxy/?url doesnt look like a valid syntax. Is there a proxy directory or script at the same level as your main html on the server?
